Speech Recognition with BVLC caffe
Speech Recognition with the caffe deep learning framework
UPDATE: We are migrating to tensorflow
This project is quite fresh and only the first of three milestones is accomplished: Even now it might be useful if you just want to train a handful of commands/options (1,2,3..yes/no/cancel/...)
- training spoken numbers:
- get spectogram training images from http://pannous.net/spoken_numbers.tar (470 MB)
- start ./train.sh
- test with
ipython notebook test-speech-recognition.ipynb
orcaffe test ...
or<caffe-root>/python/classify.py
- 99% accuracy, nice!
- online recognition and learning with
./recognition-server.py
and./record.py
scripts
Sample spectrogram, Karen uttering 'zero' with 160 words per minute.
- training words:
- 4GB of training data
- net topology: work in progress ...
- todo: use upcoming new caffe LSTM layers etc
- UPDATE LSTMs get rolling, still not merged
- UPDATE since the caffe project leaders have a hindering merging policy and this pull request was shifted many times without ever being merged, we are migrating to tensorflow
- todo: add extra categories for a) silence b) common noises like typing, achoo c) ALL other noises
- training speech:
- todo!
- 100GB of training data here: http://www.openslr.org/12/
- TIMIT dataset $27,000.00 membership fee or $250 for non-members+$2400 under research-only license?
- combine with google n-grams
